Low Inventory of Homes For Sale

Richmond, VA is still seeing a low inventory of homes for sale. Lower inventory means that each home gets more attention. Buyers are eagerly searching for new listings and it’s not uncommon for a seller to receive multiple offers the first week on the market. While we can’t guarantee every property will see this level of activity, it’s clear that with a small inventory of homes for sale, each home will have more showings and that results in more offers at higher sales prices.

Interest Rates Are Still Low

Today’s home buyers are more informed and savvy than the buyers were just 5 years ago. The mortgage meltdown created a new awareness of how the quality of the loan can make a huge difference in the security of home ownership. Buyers are doing their homework and low interest rates are very attractive. Interest rates have been historically low for years now, however there is a new sense of urgency in buyers. Last fall the Fed indicated that rates will have to rise by bumping their rate slightly. Home buyers are realizing that now is the time to take advantage of these interest rates before it’s too late.
